"The Continuing Misadventures of Jane Cottontail" page 9

Jane finally asserts herself a bit. It only took getting nearly killed several times.

50 Cartoon Crushes: Renamon ("Digimon", 2001)

Crush Class: A (adult)

True story - I happened to be vacationing in Japan when this character debuted on the new "Digimon Tamers" anime series. My friend and I instantly knew at that moment "the furries are gonna be ALL over this!", and we even considered the possibility of buying up a bunch of Japanese Renamon merch to...

50 Cartoon Crushes: Bo & Boo ("Mighty Orbots", 1984)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

One of my favorite Saturday morning cartoons as a child, "Mighty Orbots" was a semi-obscure US/Japan collaborative 'super combining robot' cartoon show by TMS Entertainment, which lost out on merchandising opportunities thanks to a lawsuit from Tonka toys. A fun 13-ep show, with LUSH animation...

50 Cartoon Crushes: Lola Bunny ("Space Jam", 1996)

Crush Class: A (adult)

 Lola Bunny has stirred up reactions lately, thanks to the "Space Jam 2" announcements and related  controversies. I saw the first film direct from a convention, and recognized her as furry bait from the start, though IMO Lola from the "Looney Tunes Show" was a funnier, more entertaining...

"The Continuing Misadventures of Jane Cottontail" - page 8

Jane attempts to show her thanks for being saved, using info learned from her earlier adventure.

Cartoon Crushes Kimberly Special Edition

"Kimberly, come in. Are you okay?"

Cartoon Crushes April preview

The "special edition" crush for the month of April will be - of course - April O'Neil from "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (classic cartoon version). Once again, I'll be happy to listen to any suggestions you might have for what she might be doing, or having done to her.

50 Cartoon Crushes: Kimberly ("Space Ace", 1984)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

Many are familiar with the Don Bluth Studio-animated video game "Dragon's Lair" and its resident sexpot Princess Daphne. I slightly preferred the successor game and Officer Kimmy, who was a bit cuter & sassier, but only slightly less of a damsel-in-distress.

"The Continuing Misadventures of Jane Cottontail" - page 7

One of the worst days in Jane's life doesn't get any better, but will it be the last day?

(Let's just assume plant enzymes work faster on clothing than on rabbits, 'kay?)

50 Cartoon Crushes - Gadget ("Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers", 1989)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

 Gadget Hackwrench, and the "Rescue Rangers" show in general, played a not-insignificant role in the formative years of my artistic development, and a partial reason why my first high-profile original character was a squirrel. If fact, my earliest concept followed the RR model ...

Leader Patron original line art giveaway

UPDATE: Images 2, 5, 11, and 12 have been claimed.

As a spring reward for Leader-class patrons, I will be giving away original inked line art from the 'Cartoon Crushes' from January and February, and a couple past Easter-themed pic from Fur After Dark. To claim yours, please send me a message (either di...

50 Cartoon Crushes: The Baroness (G.I. Joe, 1983)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

I enjoyed the G.I. Joe (A Real American Hero) cartoon a lot back in the day, though I can appreciate some of its subtler elements more now. Never really got into the Larry Hama comic - sorry quality snobs. Gotta wonder how many leather dominatrix fetishes or interests in glasses-wearing femme ...

50 Cartoon Crushes - Kei & Yuri ("Dirty Pair", 1985)

Crush Class: A (adult)

"Dirty Pair" was one of the first Japanese anime series (outside of dubbed/reworked stuff like Robotech or Voltron) I took interest in, thanks largely to the sexy protagonists in their revealing outfits. Technically I have more experience with the later comic adaptations produced by Adam Warren, h...

"Cartoon Crushes" March update

The "Special Edition" Cartoon Crush image for this month will be Kimberly, from the Don Bluth studio animated "Space Ace" video game. As usual, any suggestions you might  have for what might be done with or to her, within reasonable in-world  limits, will be welcomed in the comments below.

"The Continuing Misadventures of Jane Cottontail", page 6

Jane's independent streak didn't last very long - and neither did she.

"50 Cartoon Crushes" Cheetara special edition

Sometimes you have an idea that's just TOO stupid ... so you have to do it.

50 Cartoon Crushes - Cheetara ("Thundercats", 1985)

Crush class: C (childhood)

Definitely one of the earliest characters from a kids' cartoon that I looked at and thought "Yeah, she's pretty hot", whether running and jumping around in what was basically a swimsuit, or ostensibly nude in that first episode.

"The Continuing Misadventures of Jane Cottontail (and Fluffy)" - page 5

Something bad has happened, which may result in MORE something bad happening.

50 Cartoon Crushes - Little Annie Fanny

Little Annie Fanny & Wanda Homefree (Playboy magazine, 1962-1988)

Crush class: C (childhood)

Discovered thanks to the magic of "Dad's Playboys". I was one of those odd people who found the cartoons far more valuable than the photos, and Annie Fanny was special, though later in life I developed a strong appreci...

50 Cartoon Crushes - Latara ("Ewoks", 1985/86)

Crush class: C (childhood)

The 'Ewoks' cartoon was interesting in that it was largely reworked between its 1st and 2nd seasons. Many will disagree, but I preferred the more shallow, selfish and brassy version of Latara from the show's second season.

50 Cartoon Crushes: Carly ("Transformers", 1984)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

Later Carly Witwicky, this young lady was more technically-savvy than many others in her show, she lost her car to Decepticon fire, and yet somehow Spike managed to bag her regardless. I ended up sorta reusing her name for one of my own characters.

"The Continuing Adventures of Jane Cottontail", page 4

That boy has a gift for learning, picking up English from a rambling mess like Jane.

"Cartoon Crushes" January special edition - Cleo.

Let's just say it's her birthday or something.

Leader patron holiday season sketches - 6

Sort of a side-story to the Sabrina Online Pandemic Special, suggested by Spectre.

"Cartoon Crushes" February update

The "Special Edition" Cartoon Crush image will be Cheetara, from Thundercats (classic 1980s version). As usual, any suggestions you might have for what might happen with or to her, within reasonable in-world limits, will be welcomed in the comments below.

50 Cartoon Crushes - Cleo (Heathcliff/Cats & Co., 1984)

Crush Class: C (childhood)

 Probably my 1st legit 'furry crush', this blonde kitty alternated between snarky & flirty, depending on mood (or writer). A curious amount of screentime was spent on Cleo & Riff Raff's love life for a kids' cartoon.

"The Continuing Adventures of Jane Cottontail" page 3

Nothing like a little cassowary battle to get the blood pumping!

Leader Patron Holiday Season Sketches - 5

Sheila sporting some specific swimwear, suggested by HODL.

50 Cartoon Crushes - Dana Sterling ("Robotech", 1985)

Crush Class: C (Childhood crush)

 Nothing puts a hardcore anime purist on edge quite like saying 'Robotech', but hey, I don't know all that much about Jeanne Francaix from "Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross", but I did think Dana was pretty neat.

But then, I hear the original Japanese anime had more nudi...

"Jane Cottontail" updates

It's been a weird, rough month for us all, I think, but I just wanted to let everyone know I'm still working on this month's comic pages, if behind schedule (in the process of inking them currently). They're still coming, but will probably be piling up closer to the end of the month. Sorry for any inconvenience.
